About 5 years ago, in a fit of creative hopes, I bought myself a cheap beginner set of acrylics, wanting to learn to paint. I had no idea what to get my brothers for Christmas this year, so I decided to finally bust open the tubes and do a couple paintings for them. This is one of them, along with a poem I wrote to go with it: "An Echoing Trinity".

Intertwined, They dwell in hearts of menand outside all space and time.A mystery of three - can't quite understandthe nature of One so alive.But whether or not I can comprehendHe's there in a perfect displayOf life and of mercy - a Spirit, a Son,and a Father of consumate grace.

He spoke and stars leapedall we know came to be,out of His relationship -everything.

So now, intertwined are my brothers and Iin a life that's not quite what we'd be.But a life nonetheless He can handle I guessan echoing Trinity.
